More than a quarter of unpaid carers looking after a loved one with dementia have said they're worse off financially because of their responsibilities, according to the Alzheimer's society.

The charity is calling on the government to do more to support them.

One of my more creative days @alzheimerssoc though I can't claim credit for all these! Brilliant to join with colleagues to consider what quality looks like. Especially rewarding to hear from people living with dementia about what's important for them 💙 #involvement

[Emma Spragg @ESN8]

Looking forward to time with teams in and around Cardiff in the next instalment of my away day travels (Doing my best to avoid blue sky thinking references... it's hard!) @AlzheimersCymru @alzheimerssoc

[Emma Spragg @ESN8]

A joyous and celebratory afternoon with music, dance and food as well as bumping into colleagues and local friends. I left full of ideas, smiles and jollof rice 😍 Thank you @cahn_uk #Windrush75

[Caribbean & African Health Network @cahn_uk]

Super proud to represent @alzheimerssoc on BBC Breakfast. Knew I'd get on that sofa one day! MOTD next? 😅

[Emma Spragg @ESN8]

Such an important film, thank you @NinaWarhurst for sharing your experiences and highlighting the value of enabling people living with #dementia to get out and about with confidence

[BBC Breakfast @BBCBreakfast]

Nina's latest film about her dad Chris, who is living with dementia, looks at helping him live independently.

This time it looked at helping people who are shopping or going to places such as cafes.

Here's part of her report from #BBCBreakfast

Glorious end to two fab days @ConfedExpo Old friends, fresh ideas, new connections. Manchester you were amazing, see you next year! Oh wait I live here 😁

[Emma Spragg @ESN8]

@GMCAdigital @MayorofGM Agree! Interested to see how @alzheimerssoc could support?

[Emma Spragg @ESN8]

Good to hear 'proper sustainable funding for the voluntary sector' highlighted on the main stage as being key to supporting ICS success #NHSConfedExpo
